"The 'listen' part as we might already know, comes from mommy saying, 'Daddy, listen,'" she said.

Linda described Mateo’s instant fame as “crazy,” recounting how they were recognized at the airport while traveling and even came across two people watching their video while waiting in line.

Because Mateo loves cupcakes and superheroes, Ellen gave him his very own superhero-themed cupcake stand, complete with Superman, Batman and Spiderman-themed cupcakes, topped with Mateo as a cupcake superhero.

“I got you something that Linda might not like, but I just thought since you flew all the way here to see me, we are going to give you some cupcakes,” Ellen told a very excited Mateo.

Ellen also surprised Linda and Mateo with a $10,000 check which she hoped would help the family while Mateo's dad attends college.
